This paper describes a new approach to defining genre. A model is presented that defines genre based on likability ratings rather than features of the content itself. By collecting hundreds of thousands of likability ratings, and incorporating these into a topic model, one can create genre categories that are interesting and intuitively plausible. Moreover, we give evidence that likability-base...

This paper explores how electronic health record (EHR) systems have introduced a new genre for physicians to use (a genre we refer to as check-list) that is used in addition to their traditional narrative genre as part of a single patient health record. Our analysis suggests that it is because the overlap between these two genres is created and used interdependently that breakdowns occur in the...

This theo...

Genre definition and attribution is generally considered to be subjective. This makes evaluation of any genrelabelling system intrinsically difficult, as the ground-truth against which it is compared is based upon subjective responses, with little inter-participant consensus. This paper presents a novel method of analysing the results of a genre-labelling task, and demonstrates that there are g...

similar to any poetic genre, eulogy of the prophet (pbuh) has progressed through various stages and experienced vicissitudes of history. the genre was first developed by such great poets as ka’b bin zuhayr and hassan ibn th?bit, and continued to survive inspired by the holy qur’an and the prophet’s tradition. the period of decadence (the mongol, mam?l?k, and ottoman empires) was the heyday of t...
